In the Name of family
The Weasley and Malfoy feud had been going on for centuries. For as long as the wizarding world could remember, dead or alive. It stretched on beyond the age of time, an unwavering prospect in the unstable world.
In fact, it began so long ago that most people had forgotten how it had started. But both families agreed (probably the only thing they did agree on) that they would never, ever, mend their bridges. And believe me, (Your author), many people have tried.
There was a Ministry order once, for a Malfoy heir to marry a Weasley descendent, so sick were people of their bickering and arguing. They married, their families disowned them and they ended up killing each other.
Many People have prophesised that these two families would be joined together eventually, usually by marriage, though most of them were publicy stunts. But the Department of Mysteries had deemed one of these prophecies true.
"When a darkness rises, greater than ever before, threatening the world with its hand of destruction, two enemies of old will join together to defeat this monster."
- By Cassandra Trelawney.
This prophecy, like any other, is vague enough to mean anything under sun, but since it was made during a Wizengamot hearing where a Weasley was on trial for trespassing on Malfoy land.
These kinds of charges were not uncommon and both families could've charged each other over a butter knife, given half the chance.
There are even a number of books recounting every single feud that ever occurred between the two families, by some idiot who didn't have a social life.
The tale I will be telling you is not at all mundane and changes the course of the entire wizarding history. It takes place during a time when the world was in turmoil, when you couldn't tell of your own family members could be trusted and taking a short walk could risk you getting killed. People were so afraid that it got to the point where they would look over there shoulders in their own home. (Not that I would blame them, given the conditions.)
These times that I describe are so close to matching the prophecy that, if I were either of those families, I would sit up and take notice. But the prophecy was made so long ago and in the presence of those who have since died, that even the Ministry record of it was covered in dust.
And so begins the remaking of History.
A/N: Please review and tell me if I should continue. I need it to boost my self esteem.
